There are six important properties of parallelograms to know:
Opposite sides are congruent (AB = DC).
Opposite angels are congruent (D = B).
Consecutive angles are supplementary (A + D = 180°).
If one angle is right, then all angles are right.
The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
Each diagonal of a parallelogram separates it into two congruent triangles.
